Re: Bloodbath, last minute suggestions
Just saying, instant deal breaker for this game if it lets you hoard an excessive amount of resources and health. That type of crap made it annoying to log onto stuff like Redspot, where people were rewarded for mindlessly gathering for hours to be immune to a bunch of damage types and have a crapton of hp.
Recent game fads in the battle royal brand of games do let you collect stuff, but balance it out by making item pickups less frequent, and cap out your hp and defenses at double your max, so 200 hp/shields. Also a limited inventory meant someone had to make decisions on switching out weapons or dropping other items to make room for stuff they might need. None of this infinite hp/bullets non-sense of the other games.
Hell, even the hoarding games of note like Day Z had ways to balance endless collecting (considering that was the point of the game). These types of games generally had much larger populations, so that a single team of players couldn't entirely dominate for long (we have no such population). As well, good item pickups were even harder to get, and not something you bought with coins farmed from a location. Also no way to boost actual hp at all. SO if anyone wants to bring up the argument that that type of game is common in mainstream, it's not. They do everything they can to make being at the top of the hill brutally hard, and large populations balance it out.
Note, I never played the BETA. Though if there's one actual thing I hope for that other games failed to ever deliver, can we have actual game modes to break up the standard gameplay? It'd be nice to have an organized set of teams participating in team death match, capture the flag, king of the hill, or base building stuff that people are put on an even playing field at the start. Putting up objectives in the gameplay would make things a lot more interesting then pow pow collect. That and it seems everyone is hoping for a 1 life battle royale mode. Though, considering we don't have a large population, maybe this mode should have everyone spawn in with 2-3 lives.
